I see that too, and more frequently just total hangs, remember -current is not close to being stable due to the SMPng work, so if you need decent stability go back to the PRE_SMPNG tag (I have, and I'm happy)... -Søren To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

I see.. just cvs update src/sys/dev/ata or something like that I guess.. :-) I'll probably do that then. = | Kenneth Culver | FreeBSD: The best NT upgrade| | Unix Systems Administrator | ICQ #: 24767726 | | and student at The | AIM: muythaibxr | | The University of Maryland, | Website: (Under Construction) | | College Park. | http://www.wam.umd.edu/~culverk/| = On Fri, 22 Sep 2000, Soren Schmidt wrote: It seems Kenneth Wayne Culver wrote: Alright, I think I may just do that too...
